Chapter 554 Li Hongtu Presents a Mountain of Gold
"Grandmaster Zhou, I won this pair of statues at Sotheby''s. They are a symbol of your health and
prosperity!"
Zhang Hai waved his hand, and his subordinate brought a pair of jade statues the size of one''s
palm. They were translucent and lifelike, and one could easily tell that they were very expensive.
"Haha, thank you, Hai." Grandmaster Zhouughed and waved his hand. "You must be Yong''s
friend, right? Please be seated."
Zhang Hai bowed and retired to his seat. Yu Hui quickly stood up and went to him, "Oh, Hai, thank
you so much for your gift. It must have cost you a bomb."
She spoke loudly so that everyone around her could hear her.
"Don''t mention it, Madam Yu. Grandmaster Zhou is worthy of my respect," Zhang Hai said proudly
and sat down behind Zhou Yong''s family.
Other guests went up to Grandmaster Zhou and presented their gifts one by one. The sheer variety
and extravagance of the gifts dazzled everyone in attendance.
"The CEO of Liuzhou Mining Company presents a pair of jade bracelets…"
"The chairman of Huabei Entertainment presents a genuine Rembrandt…"
"Secretary Chen of the Yenching City Council presents an antique vase…"
Most of the guests there were friends and acquaintances of Zhou Yang and Zhou Wen. Even
Grandmaster Zhou''s two daughters also invited several bosses that brought gifts worth millions of
dors.
Only Zhou Lie and his wife stood there by themselves awkwardly. There was no one else at their
table.
The people were starting to regard them curiously. They pointed fingers at them and whispered to
each other.
Even Grandmaster Zhou grunted unhappily. He turned his head away as though Zhou Lie was not
his son.
"What do we do, Lie?" Liu Minn was getting more and more anxious. Her palms were already
wet with sweat. "Where did Feng go? The banquet is about to end!"
If Chu Feng did not show himself, they would once again be the subject of ridicule…
"Be patient and calm down," Zhou Lie grunted gruffly and bit his pipe. "He promised us he''d reim
our dignity. I''m sure he wille soon!"
Even though the seats around him were empty, he spoke confidently, "I know my son very well."
Liu Minn sighed. She trusted Chu Feng too, but anyone would feel nervous when facing such
public pressure.
"Tsk tsk, what''s going on, Lie? The banquet is almost over, but none of your guests have arrived!"
Zhou Yang said whileughing mockingly. "Don''t tell me you didn''t invite anyone!"
"If you hadn''t invited anyone, you can just admit it! No one willugh at you. We''re all family, right?"
Zhou Wen said sarcastically. "By the way, I''ll take those chairs from your table if you''re not using
them. You don''t have any guests anyway!"
Zhou Yao marched over to Zhou Lie''s table and started to move the chairs. He looked like he had
just won a war.
Zhou Yong frowned hard. He wondered if he should contact some of his friends and get them to
come over under Zhou Lie''s name.
